...and it’s delayed by rain. Typical. :roll:
 
Oh well, here we go again. England and their openers.
 
Meanwhile over at the cricket, England have been bowled out for 204 with none of the batsman passing 50.
 
Hopefully our bowlers can make use of the “home” conditions better than the W. Indies.
In theory they should, but...
 
Meanwhile over at the cricket, the Windies stretch their lead over England.

The sun is coming out and the warmth rising which will mean that the moisture is removed from the pitch. Whilst this may make batting easier I wouldn't fancy England's chances of recovering from a first innings deficit of more than 100.

After the way the English batsmen applied themselves in the 1st innings the match may well be out of sight already
 
The pitch is starting to misbehave. Bat till lunchtime tomorrow and have a dart.

And as I typed that Stokes is caught in the slips.
